Presently he came in looking flush
ed and happy.
"Joe, love, what have you been
doing 7" | asked quickly curious to
know.

answered exultingly.
1.-The gardeng Not the garden

"Now, Pet, you know mean the

There are four corners, Joe, which

"Peppersl ! hope you didn't cut
them down."
ooh, no, OF course not, cut down
nothing but weeds. Don't worry
over the garden, Pet, it's all right"
And J didn't.
The next time went into the gar
den I was discouraged. Not weed
missing that could see, but the
peppers were gone. The weather
had been rainy, and if Joe had hoed
out any weeds, and | do not doubt
his word, they must have taken root
again in the wet ground, for not one
was gone ; nay, they had multipli-
ed. After consultation, Joe and i
acknowledge their supremacy and
geve the few sickly plants of that
yet remained alive, over to their
keeping.
This all happened years and years
ago, Joe and l are practical garden
ers now. We have other children
besides Baby,-yes, three more.

fathers, Eliza Esther, named for her
grandmothers, and Jack, the young

We decided long ago that Pet

and mother however small she might
be and I am plain Sarah to Joe now
Yes, we are some changed, for
when Joe happens to find time to
speak of the "warm light of my blue

bursting with emotion, it used to, it

"Whew!". he answered, softly
whistling "Don't the folks behind

think us newly married.
Not much danger of that" re-
torted, laughing. "Our garden

HOME, SWEET HOME.

"Home, home, sweet sweet home !
There's no place like home,
There's no place like home"
Thus while busy at his play
Sang a merry, thoughtless boy.
Life and being were to him,
Only happiness and joy.
Naught he felt of homes true worth,
Naught he knew of grief and care,
Home was all his little world
Mother arms and love were there.
Sweet and clear the childish voice,
Innocent as songs of birds,
From those joyous, prattling lips
Fell the sweetest of all words
"Home, home, sweet, sweethome
There's no place like home,
There's no place like home"
enid pleasures and places though we
may roam,
Be it ever so humble, there's no place
like home.''
Sang a strong an manly voice
Bidding home and friends goodbye
While ambitions strange unrest
Flushed his creek and fired his eye.
Home is all too narrow now;
Home is not enough TO please
Wealth and happiness he seeks
Far across the distant seas.
Though he eagerly sets forth
Through a foreign land to roam,
Still he sheds silent tear
AS he leaves his childhood home.
"Anexile from home, splendor daz-
zles in vain,
O give me my lovely thatched cottage
again."
Far away in distant lands
Comes the said and earnest strains
For the happiness he sought
Wealth and pleasure are in vain,
And his restless throbing heart
Dazzling splendors can not still.
In his life he finds void
Only love and home can fill.
Home has new meaning now,
How he feels its matchless worth,
And with aching heart he longs
For that sweetest spot on earth.
"H0me, nome, sweet, sweet hume
There's no place like home,
There's no place like home.'
Now from aged, faltering lips
Comes the ever sweet refrain,
Lips that many times have quatfed
From lifes joy and grief and pain,
Thoughtfully the old man sits
BY homes cheering, warming light;
While dear loving forms be sees
Gather round the fireside bright
Peacefully he sings the hymn,
And his fancies often roam
To the loved ones far away
In that other home, sweet home.
"Home, home, sweet, sweet hoaie
There's no place like home,
There's no place like home"
Sang above a coffin now
Cold hands folded on the breast
All life's joys and sorrows DER;
Throbbing, longing heart at rest.
Sweetly smile the lips as though
Joining with the white robed throng;
Meeting loved ones gone before,
.Theylwould sing the welcome song
Home, home, sweet, sweet home !
There's no place like home,
There's no place like home1

Joe and | were real enthusiastic,

chore boys remark, "InereS Deeh
nothing on this spot for two years,
and if you folks raise anything else
here, you'll have to keep hoeing,"
failed to dampen our ardor in the
least.
When the seeds came up our trou'
bles began to multiply. Weeds came
up too. Tie peas and beans we had
planted in hills; the squashes and
cucumbers in rows; the turnips and
radishes were too thick the onions
and lettuce too thin, the sweet corn
and cabbage didn't come up at all.
sIt's too late for cabbage now,"
said neighbor to whom we comm
ed our discouragements, "hut the
corn might be replanted," which we
did at once.
"Joe, love- / venturei one morn
ing at breakfast, "the garden is get
ting pretty weedy; hadn't you bet
ter help me with it to-day 7"
"Oh, don't think it needs any
wedding yet. I'm quite busy now,
and Pm sure it will do until next
week-you're always in such a hurry
to have things done, you know pet"
II know it, love, and if you think
so we'll let the garden go for awhile"
being glad myself of an excuse to
postpone the work.
The next day Ned, having a leis-
ure hour, Joe sent him with the hoe
into the garden. He instinctively
turned to the corn patch, and not
seeing the small sprouts of the re-
planting just through the ground,
hoed them out.
During the week following, we
waged war on the weeds; Joe said
he couldn't see why they grew so
much faster than the vegetables did.
I wondered at it too, but didn't
say much for fear of discouraging
Joe.
The next night at supper he re-
marked 'sThere will be frost to.
night. Now, if Eve hadn't welded
the garden yesterday, the weeds
might have protected the plants ;
I've been expecting frost for some
time.'
swell, why didn't you say that
yesterday? / never thought of O
frost, and,- and-I was certain the
garden needed to have something
done with it, and love, we might
cover the tenderest plants up to.
Eight, you know
$50 we might; what a planner
you are, Pet; we'll see about it af
ter while"
But "after awhile" Joe's boots
were off, and his slippers on, and
he was setting in an easy rocker,
reading intently. I,seated near, was
bending low over fancy-work.
While he read / worked the pref.
ty yarn back and forth on the can
vas. Jack Frost was in the garden,
biting the outer leaves of the cucum-
Der, bean, and tomato vines.
Later on, there was another frost,
which did more damage. and then
baby came.
This occurrence proved disastrous
to our garden. 1t was sadly in need
of second wedding. Ned had left
us, and there was no one to do it but
Joe, and who would expect him to
think of anything but baby, for a
week, at least after his arrival? /
confess, I forgot great many things
for some time, myself.
"She has your eyes, pet, your
heavenly eyes," exclaimed Joe when
he first looked at baby, $50 like
YOU" tenderly kissing her, and then
me.
"But she has your hair, love just
see how it curls," l replied, caress-
ing the tiny silken ringlets. Then
there was kissing again, after which
